In the blink of an eye, the crew of "Folding Paper" has been in production for a week.
According to the arrangement of the announcement, Liu Xueyi completed all the single roles of several actors in the winter. Due to the tacit understanding between Cheng Xia and Ye Mingqian, he also took the time to finish the rival scenes of Qin Nian and Xu Fei in the original work.
It's the weekend and it's snowing again.
Liu Xueyi called Cheng Xia and Shen Kai to the side early in the morning, and patiently exhorted: "You two are familiar with each other now, aren't you? Today, I mainly shoot the rivalry between Qin Nian and Lu Fengyang, don't be nervous, go to the side and match the lines first. , make preparations."
The two came to a quiet corner, took the script and began to confront the lines.
Cheng Xia was not too impressed with Shen Kai, the Alpha. These days, they were basically filming separately, and there was not much contact. Shen Kai's attitude towards him was quite friendly, and the two would greet each other when they met and chat casually.
But say familiar? They really don't know each other well.
Shen Kai was wearing a school uniform with a black down jacket over it. He was half a head taller than Cheng Xia. Since the initial setting of the Lu Fengyang he was about to play was a "stubborn scumbag who didn't learn anything", his hair was also blocked. The stylist made it a bit non-mainstream, and the chestnut hair was treated with hairspray, which looked cool, but was actually pretty good.
Cheng Xia played Qin Nian, who was the top student in all the homework exams. The two stood face to face. The image contrast was quite large. In addition, they didn't know each other well.
Fortunately, Director Liu was at the side to adjust the atmosphere: "Come on, let's match the lines in the first three acts. From now on, you are Qin Nian, and you are Lu Fengyang. Let's start."
Cheng Xia and Shen Kai looked at each other and began to speak according to the script.
There are a total of four scenes for the two of them to shoot against each other today. The first three scenes are literary scenes, and there are not many characters in the scene. The two only need to do their expressions and actions and read their lines. Moreover, in order to take care of them, Director Liu chose to play against each other today when the relationship between the two was still at the friend stage, and Cheng Xia didn't need to show the complicated emotions of secretly liking each other as soon as he came up.
The friend stage, of course, is much better than admiring each other.
Under the guidance of Liu Xueyi, the two finished their lines, and the expressions in their eyes and movements were not meticulous. Liu Xueyi also taught them hand-to-hand. Cheng Xia gradually became involved in the role, and the acting with Shen Kai became more and more smooth.
After finishing the play, Director Liu went to the side to see the layout of the scene. Cheng Xia looked around. He subconsciously looked for President Pei in the crowd, but did not find the familiar tall figure. Cheng Xia was a little puzzled. President Pei came to the studio to supervise every day a few days ago. Why didn't he show up today? Did something happen
"Cheng Xia." The voice in his ear interrupted his thoughts, Cheng Xia turned around and smiled at Shen Kai's frank smile: "I'll try my best to take on your scene later, you don't have to worry too much, just let it go. The show is on."
Cheng Xia does not leave the script every day, and recites the script wherever he goes. The whole crew can see his seriousness. In addition, he and Ye Mingqian played very smoothly a few days ago. Today, he is playing opposite Cheng Xia. Shen Kai's pressure is actually even greater. Cheng Xia is a rookie, NG can also be said to be inexperienced. How could he have acted in several online dramas, how embarrassing would it be if he couldn't compare to Cheng Xia
After hearing his words, Cheng Xia nodded earnestly and said, "Okay, we all let go of acting. We only need to act like good buddies in this morning's play. I just heard Director Liu talk about it, it's not special. Disaster."
Shen Kai took the initiative to turn on the phone: "Since you're playing a friend, why don't you make a friend first?"
The Alpha in front of him had open eyes, a heartless smile, and a cool expression, as if he had entered the role of "Lu Fengyang". Cheng Xia also simply took out his mobile phone and added him as a friend. The interpersonal relationship in the circle is complicated, and this cooperation with Shen Kai is also a fate. Just to be a friend, Cheng Xia doesn't think there is any problem.
After adding friends, the two chatted for a while, and Cheng Xia realized that Shen Kai had studied art before, not from a film school, and he couldn't help admiring: "You are not a professional, and your acting skills are still good. So good, so amazing!"
Shen Kai smiled and touched his nose: "Well, many people in the upper dramas scolded me, saying that I played a rich second generation into a hillbilly."
Cheng Xia said: "You don't need to worry about the black fans. I watched your last drama, and you did a good job..."
After chatting for a few minutes, the relationship between the two became closer, and the scene was not as awkward as before.
A moment later, Director Liu's filming venue was ready. Today, there are a lot of supporting roles such as sister and Fa Xiao. Newcomers such as Xue Ling and Qi Xiaofei also performed very well. After four scenes in an hour, the progress is gratifying.
Director Liu was in a good mood and called Cheng Xia and Shen Kai.
The makeup artist immediately stepped forward to help them organize their makeup and hairstyle, and the two also took off their warm down jackets.
The snow fell heavily, and in a blink of an eye, a layer of snowflakes fell on their hair.
As Director Liu said "start", Cheng Xia quickly entered the role of "Qin Nian" when the camera was aimed at him. He looked at Shen Kai and smiled naturally: "Feng Yang, why are you here?" After all It is not difficult to act only by treating each other as friends.
Cheng Xia's line skills made Director Liu impressed.
This newcomer is too serious. I don't know how many times I have memorized the lines in private. The NG method of "forgetting the words" rarely occurs. Those long lines are always smooth when they reach his mouth. Obviously, he has worked hard behind his back. of.
On the contrary, Shen Kai, who has acted in several online dramas, did not keep up for a while.
Shen Kai bowed to the director: "I'm sorry, I forgot the words, Cheng Xia and Feng Yang called me stunned!"
Cheng Xia said with a smile, "Feng Yang Feng Yang, you will get used to it if you call it a few more times."
Shen Kai nodded: "Well, come again."
When filming resumed, Cheng Xia's lines were still smooth, and his expressions and movements were in place. He obviously remembered what Director Liu taught him just now. The young man in front of him had a bright smile, and when he was called "Feng Yang", he was very smooth. Gradually, Shen Kai was also brought in, and the two cooperated more and more tacitly. The first act was played three times, and the second act, Three acts, even one pass.
Liu Xueyi excitedly said to Xu Muran: "I thought it would take a long time for Cheng Xia, Ye Mingqian, and Shen Kai to get in touch. It's normal for NGs ten or eight times. I didn't expect their tacit understanding to be so high!"
Xu Muran said: "several newcomers are very serious, and the lines are familiar. I hope the emotional scenes in the future can be filmed smoothly."
Playing a friend and playing a lover are completely two different feelings. Don't look at the smooth shooting of Cheng Xia and Shen Kai's rival scenes today, after the plot progresses to the point of mutual liking, the key is whether the heartbeat of the beginning of love can be played well.
Director Liu thought about it carefully and said, "The focus is on tonight's group show. I'll talk to them later."
At noon, Pei Shaoze hadn't come to the crew yet.
Taking advantage of the lunch time, the staff whispered: "Why didn't Mr. Pei come today? He came for a week in a row, but he was suddenly absent today, but he was not used to it!" "I don't know, he is Tianxuan's boss after all, he should be It’s quite busy, and it’s impossible to stare at the studio every day.”
Cheng Xia was also very puzzled when he heard their discussion. It happened that Director Liu was looking for him and asked him to come over for dinner. Cheng Xia sat next to Director Liu and grabbed a few mouthfuls of rice, pretending to inadvertently asked casually, "Director Liu, isn't Mr. Pei coming today?"
Liu Xueyi explained while eating: "Mr. Pei took the plane to Ya'an early this morning. The conditions have been negotiated at Mingde Middle School. This time he went to confirm the schedule and set the contract. Our drama involves The snow scenes were all filmed in No. 17, and all the spring, summer, and autumn scenes, as well as the interior scenes, were filmed at Na Ya'an."
Cheng Xia suddenly realized: "It turns out that this is the case. President Pei is really thoughtful. I haven't been to Ya'an. I heard that there are flowers and green trees all year round, and the scenery is very good."
Liu Xueyi said with emotion: "Well, the entire crew Fei Ya'an, food and clothing costs are all money! President Pei probably won't come to the studio these days, except for a business trip to Ya'an, he has to invest more. Although the funding for the crew is sufficient, if you take more money, you can have more money on hand, which can be used for special effects and music in the later stage.”
Screenwriter Xu also said: "President Pei is really interested in this drama. Cheng Xia, he praised you yesterday, saying that you are a very talented newcomer. After watching the filming progress in the past few days, he is very interested in you. I am very satisfied, and I am very relieved about your performance.”
Hearing Pei's private admiration from others, Cheng Xia's cheeks were slightly hot, and her heartbeat couldn't help but speed up. He was very happy, just like when he was a student who worked hard to get into the top few in the class and was praised by his parents.
This kind of joy is shown in his eyes. The boy's eyes are particularly bright, and his eyes are full of smiles: "Thank you Director Liu, thank you Teacher Xu, I am a newcomer, and I have to learn a lot from the teachers."
Liu Xueyi particularly liked Cheng Xia, who worked hard, and patted him on the shoulder lovingly: "The filming progressed very smoothly these days, Cheng Xia, your credit is definitely the first. There is a more complicated group scene tonight. , you prepare well in the afternoon and try to finish the filming smoothly."
Cheng Xia got the announcement last night. Today's scene during the day is relatively simple, and it's all dialogue. He and Shen Kai have good lines and become familiar with each other's rhythm. The filming is really smooth.
But the evening group scene involved a lot of action. Lu Feng and Yang Fang fought with a few gangsters in an alley after self-study in the evening. Qin Nian saw him when he was passing by, and found that he had beaten one against five and gradually lost his strength, so he went to help. In this scene, in addition to the two main characters Qin Nian and Lu Fengyang, there are also five extras who play gangsters.
Cheng Xia was filming an action scene for the first time, and he didn't have much confidence. Director Liu saw his concerns and said, "In the afternoon, there will be an action teacher who will teach you how to shoot this scene. You and Shen Kai have to cooperate with the extras. Practice together, and you will study hard."
Cheng Xia nodded: "I know Director Liu."
At this moment, the phone suddenly "ding" sounded, it was a WeChat message.
Cheng Xia opened it and saw that it was a photo sent by Pei Shaoze.
In the photo is a shady path with tall trees on both sides. The emerald canopy blends with each other, like a natural green umbrella on the top of the head. The weather was very sunny, the sun shone through the gaps between the leaves, and cast mottled fragments of light and shadow on the ground. The quiet corridor was as beautiful as a cartoon landscape painting with fresh colors.
Pei Shaoze immediately sent a sentence: "The scenery here in Ya'an is good, and I found it by accident as a holy place for dating."
Cheng Xia's heart skipped a beat - a dating place? What does this mean
The next moment I saw him and said, "The scene where you send a paper boat to Lu Fengyang in the finale can be filmed here."
Cheng Xia: "..."
Sure enough, I am a workaholic. When I saw such a beautiful place, I just wanted to shoot the drama and set the scene.
Cheng Xia replied: "President Pei is in Ya'an? The weather over there looks so good."
Pei Shaoze: "Well, Ya'an has been sunny recently, the sun is very good, the temperature is about 28 degrees, you can wear short sleeves."
Cheng Xia casually sent two snow scenes taken this morning: "It's snowing heavily in Rongcheng again, and it's even more spectacular than a few days ago."
At the same time, the two people were separated by more than half of the country. On one side, there were green trees and flowers, and the other side was covered in silver and desolate. The photos sent to each other on WeChat are like two worlds, and the feeling is subtle.
In reality, due to the premature death of his father, Pei Shaoze was busy with his work, and was running around every day. Every time he went on a business trip, he came and went in a hurry. But today, when he saw those scenery, he suddenly thought of Cheng Xia, so he subconsciously took a photo and shared it with Xiao Chengxia.
He thought that Cheng Xia would be very happy to see such a beautiful scenery. The finale of this drama was filmed with this scene, and the effect was absolutely perfect, and it was not a waste of time for Cheng Xia to practice origami for so long.
Pei Shaoze clicked Cheng Xia's circle of friends.
This morning, Cheng Xia posted a circle of friends, writing: "I built a snowman in front of the door last night, but when I got up this morning, I got a whole circle. The snow was so heavy that my eyes and nose were buried..."
The snowman in the photo is indeed chubby, his eyes and nose are all invisible, a black towel is on his head as his hair, and a strange red scarf is wrapped around his neck, which is tied crookedly.
… quite cute.
Pei Shaoze looked at the snowman with a smile in his eyes. He gave a thumbs up, and replied, "The innocence is still alive."
Cheng Xia's ears warmed when she received it, and she suddenly felt the embarrassment of being "naughty and being caught by her parents" when she was a child.
- Childlike innocence, does this mean that he is "childish"
The crew ended work at 6:30 p.m. yesterday. There was thick snow in front of the door, which was clean and white. Cheng Xia was idle and bored, so he made a snowman to play with itchy hands. I didn't expect President Pei to see his circle of friends. . Cheng Xia clicked into Pei Shaoze's circle of friends, and found that it was empty, and all the previous ones were deleted.
He had to reply to President Pei in his circle of friends: "Report to the boss, I'm not lazy, the snowman was built after work yesterday, so I'll go back to the script ^_^"
The reply that popped up made the smile on Pei Shaoze's lips more obvious.
Pei Shaoyan was having dinner with his brother, and when he saw his brother took out his mobile phone and sent two messages, he suddenly laughed lightly. He was used to being serious. Even if he laughed, he would not laugh like some people with exaggerated expressions. The smile just raised the corners of his lips, but it was this faint smile that made the cold and serious man suddenly become a lot warmer.
Pei Shaoyan thought to himself, he must have sent a message to Cheng Xia, people who fall in love will indeed become gentle.
There are no more than five people who have added Cheng Xia and President Pei, and only friends in common with both parties can see this message. Zhou Yan happened to have two friends. After seeing the prompt in the circle of friends, she went in curiously - President Pei's message was for Cheng Xia.
Since Pei Shaoze came to work in Tianxuan, she has never posted a Moments or replied a Moments message in the past month. She thought that President Pei didn't read Moments at all, but Pei Shaoze suddenly replied to Cheng Xia
Zhou Yan frowned suspiciously, maybe she just happened to see it and replied easily? Simple four words, and nothing special.
What she didn't know was that Pei Shaoze just clicked on Cheng Xia's circle of friends to check the latest news. As for other people's circle of friends and daily news, he is not interested in paying attention at all.
